The debate was never settled, so this week we brought in the man himself. We're joined by the incredible Joaquin Pedro Valdes, newly cast as Benny as Rent returns to the West End for its 30th Anniversary. Expect Shinigami, Shakespearean lions and whether the Scorpions had a point on Thunder Road.Rent is playing the Tom Stoppard Theatre from the 26th September.

Wayne Penello, president and chief executive officer at NextGen EMP, says he expects the Standard & Poor's 500 to double in the next five years, in the "greatest bull market we have seen in 60 to 80 years," though he acknowledges that this kind of rise ultimately will end in a bubble. He thinks the market can rally, with only modest to moderate corrections, before it reaches that crescendo, and says investors should be watching for the point where artificial intelligence is over-saturating the market to where prices collapse to see when that is likely to happen. Penello, a Wall Street veteran whose firm recently opened the Efficient Market Portfolio Plus ETF — a long-short fund that tries to balance risks by leaning into or away from market sectors, says he is leaning into semiconductors, particularly when the market sorus on them, and is going light or away from consumer discretionary stocks and utilities. Olivia Valdes, senior researcher at the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, updates us on the group's study of financial frauds. FINRA recently released "Patterns in Fraud Awareness: What Comes to Mind When Americans Think About Financial Fraud," which asked people to name the common schemes and tactics fraudsters use, and found that even identity-based crimes — the thievery that most Americans are aware of and cautious about — was top of mind for only half of the population. Valdes says this helps to explain how even savvy consumers get taken in by schemes, as fraud losses in the U.S. now run at nearly $200 billion per year.  In the Money Life Market Call, Stefan Grater, portfolio manager overseeing the domestic and international value strategies at Eldred Rock Partners, discusses his disciplined, concentrated approach to value investing.

In Segment 1's 2A Tuesday, Gun Owners of America (GOA) Florida State Director Luis Valdes joins the broadcast during primary election campaign travel to discuss a landmark ruling from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Silencer Shop Foundation v. ATF). Valdes outlines the legal challenge following budget reconciliation legislation that reduced National Firearms Act (NFA) transfer and manufacturing taxes on suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns to zero dollars. The court ruled that without an active tax revenue collection mechanism under Article I, the federal government lacks constitutional authority to mandate NFA Form 1/Form 4 registration, fingerprinting, background checks, and registry filings for zero-taxed items. Valdes details the Department of Justice appeal window, federal agency oversight, and upcoming U.S. Supreme Court Second Amendment litigation regarding state-level semi-automatic firearm and magazine capacity bans.

How can killing the profession's collective ego unlock new business models, elevate client experience, and modernize business development across the AEC industry?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, host Evelyn Lee welcomes back George Valdes, co-founder of ToolBlocks and marketing and design lead at companies such as Monograph, IrisVR, Paperspace, and WeWork. Five years after his initial appearance on the podcast, George returns to reflect on his non-linear trajectory, from studying landscape architecture at FIU and earning an M.Arch at Columbia GSAPP to navigating the tech startup ecosystem without a traditional coding background. George unpacks how early experiences, including running a design firm prior to graduation and leading accreditation efforts at Columbia that brought him deep inside NAAB and NCARB, shaped his decision to step away from traditional practice and realize that professionals can simply take agency and "just do things".The conversation explores the mechanics of tech adoption, the friction around firm portfolios, and how his latest venture, ToolBlocks, leverages network intelligence and AI agents to collapse non-billable time and streamline business development for AEC firms. The discussion also dives into client experience as the critical battleground for the next decade, pushing firm leaders to challenge received ideas around marketing, fee structures, annual reviews, and compensation models. George advocates for a shift in how architectural education and practice view the "expanded architect," emphasizing that the profession must be willing to dismantle its ego to adapt to changing client expectations and market realities."It's just this energy of 'you can just do things.' When there's friction or a lack of agency, I'm always questioning why. Who's saying that you can't do something?" - George ValdesThis episode serves as a powerful reminder that architectural practice is moving beyond traditional boundaries, requiring firm leaders to align business strategy, client experience, and internal operations. By questioning inherited norms and embracing operational leverage, architects can position themselves for sustainable growth in an evolving industry.Guests:George Valdes is the co-founder of ToolBlocks (now called Zensets), a platform focused on helping AEC firms grow their network, build pipeline, and automate business development workflows. With an academic foundation in landscape architecture from Florida International University and an M.Arch from Columbia University GSAPP, George spent a year leading GSAPP's accreditation process before transitioning into tech. Over the past decade, he has held leadership roles across product, marketing, and strategy at Augmate, IrisVR (acquired by Autodesk), Paperspace (acquired by DigitalOcean), WeWork, and Monograph.This episode is especially for you if:✅ You are curious about how to navigate non-traditional career paths in AEC, product management, and tech leadership.✅ You want to learn how relationship mapping and AI tools can modernize business development and collapse non-billable hours.✅ You are looking to reframe client experience as a primary driver of firm value and differentiation.✅ You are interested in challenging received ideas around firm operations, performance reviews, and seller-doer compensation models.✅ You believe architectural education and practice should embrace the concept of the "expanded architect" to stay relevant.What have you done to take action lately?

Episode Summary:Is faith just wishful thinking? How should Christians think about conspiracy theories?In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Juan Valdes to recover a biblical, evidence-based understanding of faith. We explore why faith is not a blind leap but trust in a trustworthy God, why the object of faith matters more than the amount of faith, and how damaging teachings like “you weren't healed because you lacked faith” distort the gospel.We also tackle the faith vs. science narrative, exposing the assumptions behind scientism and showing why the deeper conflict is often naturalism vs. theism, not Christianity vs. research. Along the way, we discuss faith and works, skepticism, conspiracy thinking, and how churches can disciple young people being shaped more by school, media, and social platforms than by biblical teaching. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Rich Valdes fills in for Mark Levin. The radical left socialists in New York City started around 15 years with Occupy Wall Street. They shifted from occupying a park to running newsrooms, classrooms, and Congress. President Trump and the MAGA movement have fought back. We are choosing liberty, but we need to replace them in these key roles. We need active involvement beyond passive support—getting hands dirty, not just writing checks. The country must fight to hold and regain ground in key areas rather than cut bait. The time for action is now.

Kad mainās valdības, nozares to parasti uztver ar zināmām gaidām vai bažām. Šoreiz tas notiek tikai dažus mēnešus pirms vēlēšanām, kas, iespējams, liks pieņemt vēl ātrākus lēmumus, varbūt arī priekšvēlēšanu laika diktētus. Snaust nevar, satraucošā drošības situāciju rada galvassāpes Latvijas austrumu daļā un diemžēl ietekmē arī uzņēmējdarbību.

She has alleged that her work on Zorro Ranch, local cover-up claims, and possible intelligence-linked trafficking networks made her a target, and she described suffering symptoms she compared to “Havana syndrome,” including neurological pressure-type effects. She claimed the attacks came in multiple episodes, possibly from equipment on or near her roof or from a semi-truck parked near her home.

Episode Summary: We've entered a world where seeing is no longer believing.In a culture shaped by deepfakes, viral outrage, and endless information, a deeper question emerges: how do you know what's real? When feelings become truth, reality doesn't disappear; it just gets ignored. And increasingly, that confusion isn't just out there; it's showing up inside the Church.In this episode, we sit down with pastor and apologist Juan Valdes, author of How to Think: A Crash Course in Critical Thinking, to confront the rise of post-truth thinking and its impact on apologetics, everyday discipleship, and your personal life. Why do arguments fall flat when emotions become the referee? And how is the authority of Scripture quietly being replaced by modern ideas of authenticity?Juan helps us chart a better path forward. We explore how to test ideas against reality, ask better questions, and rebuild a biblical worldview that connects every area of life. This is a conversation about recovering clarity, confidence, and compassion in an age of confusion. If you're tired of the fog and want to think clearly again, this episode is for you.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?

I had fun reading the most recent issue of The Metrograph, the magazine from a cinema I frequent, so for a change from the recent festival dispatches, I sat down with its editors to chat about a few articles that caught my eye. Nick Pinkerton shares his work on the inimitable filmmaker Paul Morrissey; Kelli Weston speaks of fashion designer and costume Zelda Wynn Valdes; and Annabel Brady-Brown talks about Dean Hurley, David Lynch's sound maven and his unsettling contributions to Twin Peaks: The Return.
